Three hour sleep stories for adults, from the fairy tales and myths you already know. Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, Sleeping Beauty, Robin Hood, Homer's Odyssey, and the old gods of the North and of Egypt, each retold in slow, calm narration made to be listened to as you fall asleep. The voice you hear is the creator's own. He cloned it from recordings of his own voice, so every story is told in his voice. If you enjoy falling asleep to it, follow the show so each new story arrives on its own, and leave a rating on Apple Podcasts so other people can find it. Each episode is researched, written, and narrated to drift over you rather than demand your attention. The pacing is slow. The music never spikes. The goal is the opposite of keeping you awake. Each season moves through a different story tradition: Norse mythology, Egyptian myth, the great fairy tales, the tales of 1001 Nights, Homer's Odyssey, the myths of ancient Mesopotamia, and the lost books of the Bible. New episodes every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday night, every one of them three hours long. The almanac is now a book. Norse Myths Retold for Sleep gathers twelve of the oldest stories, retold to be read in a low lamp until the page slips from your hand.

  • Enuma Elish: The Babylonian Creation Story | 3 Hour Sleep Story to Fall Asleep
    2026/09/25

    The voice you hear is the creator's own. He cloned it from recordings of his own voice, so every story is told in his voice. If you enjoy falling asleep to it, follow the show so each new story arrives on its own, and leave a rating on Apple Podcasts so other people can find it.

    Enuma Elish is the Babylonian creation story, and it is not called that at all. Its name is simply the first two words on the first tablet, When above. Seven tablets, about a thousand lines, and a world made first out of water, then out of noise, then out of a quarrel, and at last out of the body of the oldest thing there was. Tonight you will hear how the sky was fastened up, where the Tigris and the Euphrates were said to come from, how a city put its own name on the making of everything, and why, once a year, the most powerful man in Babylon was slapped in the face by a priest until he cried. A slow, calm 3 hour sleep story to help you fall asleep and stay asleep. Settle in, close your eyes, and let it drift over you. The pacing is slow, the voice is soft, and the music never spikes. You do not have to follow it. You do not have to remember any of it in the morning. These are retellings drawn from the real tablets and the real history. Where the old stories turn toward fear or cruelty, we turn gently toward comfort, choosing the telling that serves a calm night. Where scholars disagree, the disagreement is said out loud rather than smoothed over. Season Five of The Sleeping Almanac: Mesopotamia. Twelve nights.

  • Odysseus and His Father Laertes · The Odyssey · Greek Mythology Sleep Story
    2026/09/24

    The voice you hear is the creator's own. He cloned it from recordings of his own voice, so every story is told in his voice. If you enjoy falling asleep to it, follow the show so each new story arrives on its own, and leave a rating on Apple Podcasts so other people can find it.

    Welcome to The Sleeping Almanac. Tonight is the last night of the Odyssey, and it is the quietest one. A king who has just won back his own hall walks out of it at first light and goes up into the hills, because there is one person left who does not know he is alive. His father lives on a high farm now, in a labourer's patched tunic and gardener's gloves, working an orchard alone and refusing the comfort of the house, because grief made him small and the work is the only thing that answers. You will hear a son stand at the edge of a vineyard row and watch an old man dig, and try a stranger's story on him first, and watch it land like a stone. And then you will hear him give up the disguise and prove himself with the gentlest evidence in all of Homer. Not a scar. Not a bow. A list of trees. Thirteen pear, ten apple, forty fig, and the rows of vines a father once walked with a small boy at his heel and counted out loud as a gift, and the boy remembered every one of them for forty years. You will hear a house wake up around that. A bath, clean clothes, an old woman's cooking, three generations of one family sitting at a table at the same time for the first time in a lifetime. And out on the road the fathers of the dead come looking for the king with spears, and the anger of a whole island stands up at once, and it is ended not with a battle but with a voice out of the sky and a bolt in the dust and oaths of peace sworn on the spot. Then the days after. A story promised and finally told, an oar carried inland until someone calls it a winnowing fan, and a sail at the edge of morning. A calm, hopeful telling for sleep, calm enough to drift to and rich enough to stay awake for if you choose.

    Close your eyes. Let the orchard go quiet. There is nothing to do now but listen and rest.

  • The Odyssey · The Bow and the Bed of Living Olive · 3 Hour Sleep Story
    2026/09/22

    Welcome to The Sleeping Almanac. Tonight a great bow comes down off a wall where it has hung at rest through a whole long war, and the strongest young men in a kingdom warm it and grease it at the fire and cannot bend it, because strength was never the thing it was waiting for. A queen carries her husband's bow down the stairs in her own two arms and sets the terms of a contest she believes no one can win. A boy plants twelve iron axe heads in a straight trench down the hall floor, a game he has never once seen played, and his hands know it anyway. And a beggar in rags asks to try that bow, and turns it in his hands the way a singer turns a new lyre, and strings it without rising from his stool, and plucks it once, and one clear note answers like a swallow. You will see a single arrow fly clean through the sockets of all twelve axes without touching iron. You will see a house give a wandering king back his name, and then his hall, and then his wife, who makes him prove himself with a bed whose secret is a living olive tree for a leg, rooted in the island itself, that no man alive could move. The night is stern for a little while in its middle, told plainly and in a low voice and staged not at all, and it is brief, and it passes. On the far side of it there is a house swept clean, and two people knowing each other again after twenty years, and a night the grey eyed goddess made longer so they would have time enough. A calm, hopeful telling for sleep, calm enough to drift to and rich enough to stay awake for if you choose.

    Close your eyes. Let the hall go quiet. There is nothing to do now but listen and rest.
